ABOUT THE PROGRAM

Please Note: This program is currently not accepting applications.

The Graduate Certificate in Leadership and Ethics is a 15-hour graduate study program
designed to prepare students for ethical leadership in a variety of ways. It offers
a unique opportunity for graduate students to explore the interface and interdependence
of leadership and ethics.

This program develops ethically sound leaders who embrace a global perspective, develop
people and teams, steward societal resources, understand organizational strategy,
and lead with integrity.

This unique academic certificate is available in three options:

Option #1A The Partner Certificate. Seventeen academic areas at Kennesaw State University collaborate as partners with
the Siegel Institute for the Graduate Certificate in Leadership and Ethics. By doing
the partner format, specific coursework in your chosen Master's or Doctoral degree
can be applied to the Graduate Certificate. To complete the partner Certificate in
Leadership and Ethics, you take a total of fifteen credit hours of designated courses:
six hours in specified courses from your Master's or Doctoral program and nine hours
of ILEC courses.

Option #1B The Modified Partner Certificate for students who have already completed one of the fifteen partner master's programs
and want to add the Graduate Certificate in Leadership and Ethics to their official
transcript

Option #2 The Exclusive Certificate enables you to enroll in ILEC's graduate level courses at KSU without being enrolled
in a Master's or Doctoral degree. You enroll through the KSU Graduate School and register
for the ILEC courses required to complete the Graduate Certificate. To complete the
Exclusive Certificate, you complete fifteen credit hours of ILEC Leadership and Ethics
courses.
